Rooftop installation
If the outdoor unit is installed on a roof structure, be sure to level
the unit.
Ensure the roof structure and anchoring method are adequate for
the unit location.
If the outdoor unit is installed on roof structures or external walls,
this may result in excessive noise and vibration, and may also be
classed as non-serviceable installation.
caution
• The outdoor unit is charged with the refrigerant for standard
pipe length of 7.5m.
• When the connecting pipe length is longer than the standard
length, additional refrigerant should be added into the unit
according to the above table through the service port on
3-way service valve on the outdoor unit.
• Please maintain the shortest distance (3 to 5 metres) and
shortest misalignment possible between the indoor and
outdoor units.
• The maximum allowance length and height is based
on reliability. Exceeding the maximum may cause poor
performance or malfunction.
• When the level difference between indoor and outdoor units
is greater than the maximum height of 10 metres, or when
the outdoor unit is installed above the indoor unit, an oil trap
should be installed every 5-7 metres.
